Members PlasticMoonRain Posted April 12, 2006 Members Share Posted April 12, 2006 Hey all: Just reading the Guitar World cover interview with Tool's Adam Jones and he talks about this wild pedal his engineer made for their new album. It sounded so crazy, I figured you'd all get a kick out of it. Jones talks about how he has this Gig-FX Chopper pedal he had worked on so he could go from a clean sound to tremolo and control the tremolo speed as well. The pedal let him slow it down and speed it up. Jones tells his engineer that he wished he could do this with ANY pedal. So the dude does his thing and comes back with what looks like a wah pedal, but you plug your other pedals into it. It blends between your clean sound and the pedal effect, so you can fade in the effect gradually, "like a breath," instead of clicking the pedal on.

Members aeroslepperin Posted April 12, 2006 Members Share Posted April 12, 2006 thanks for reminding me to buy the new guitar world issue... so the vfm acts as sort of an external blend control for any pedal plugged into it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dear Gibson-Please bring back the Silverburst, so that I don't have to spend a ridiculous amount on one from Ebay. And, no, the crappy one that Samash had a few years back doesn't count.Thank you.

Members Caulk Rocket Posted April 13, 2006 Members Share Posted April 13, 2006 Originally posted by BlurryBoy 13 Can't you do this with any ab box and a volume pedal? Maybe use a mixer like the DMC System Mix with wet on one side and dry on the other, and the use a volume pedal to control the mix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
